Vancouver rabbis and Christian clergy to discuss Israel

A rabbi, Anglican priest, United Church of Canada minister and Lutheran pastor will be discussing their recent trip to Israel on Thursday, March 15th at Temple Sholom in Vancouver.

Temple Sholom Rabbi Philip Bregman says, “The comments and insights by my colleagues about the trip and their thoughts and feelings, were brilliant, amazing, insightful, courageous, and extremely educational.” The clergy are Anglican priest Richard Leggett, United Church Rev. Gary Gaudin and Lutheran pastor Paul Schmidt. He encourages the public to attend the Israel dialogue at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, March 15th, at 7190 Oak Street.
